Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel is frustrated by the failure to move out a raft of fringe players.
The Telegraph says Tuchel is looking to offload Michy Batshuayi, Kenedy, Malang Sarr, Ross Barkley, Timo Werner and Kepa during the summer transfer window but there has been little interest in the Chelsea fringe players so far.
As a result, Tuchel has had to sacrifice several places on Chelsea's pre-season tour of America and refrain from taking four youngsters make room for the likes of Batshuayi, Barkley and Sarr.
Chelsea have failed to find clubs that are willing to pay a worthwhile fee and take on their big wages.
The unwanted players are said to be costing the Premier League giants in the region of £500,000 each week.
